Lodge Park Greeting Card IMG 172633

A small cluster of snow trilliums (Trillium nivale) blooms at ground level amid last year’s brown leaf litter at Lodge Park in Monticello, Illinois — white three-petaled flowers with yellow-green centers pushing up through the debris of last autumn’s leaves, bare deciduous trees and a vivid blue sky visible behind them. One of the very first wildflowers of the year in the Midwest, photographed from ground level at the moment it announces that winter is over, ready or not.
